No, Nickel has 2 electrons in its outermost shell! Look at the Periodical Table!!

Correction: The first answer was indeed correct. Ni = [Ar] 3d8 4s2 and if you count the number of valence electrons in each level, it comes up to ten. I just had a chemistry test on this, and I thought it was two at first too, but it's not. Don't think it's two unless you want to get the wrong answer.

I am not sure ,but the valency of nickel might be 2,but not according to Periodic Table,and who wrote this to look at periodic table?May be S/he has own periodic table in whick Nickel has 2 electrons in outermost shell.
